Download or read book An Exposition of 1 2 Peter written by Alexander Nisbet and published by Banner of Truth. This book was released on 1982 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps of all the apostles, most Christians find themselves most readily drawn to Simon Peter. His failure, restoration and subsequent usefulness provide hope for those who face testing and temptation. Despite that, Peter's twin epistles are probably given less attention than many other sections of the New Testament. But they continue to speak with power and relevance. They provide encouragement and assurance from one who himself needed both; they give basic instruction in Christian living; they also provide clear teaching on false doctrine. They are therefore essential letters for Christians today. Nisbet's outstanding practical treatment is an ideal aid for preachers, teachers, group leaders and all students or readers of the Bible.

Download or read book The Promise of His Appearing written by Peter J. Leithart and published by Canon Press & Book Service. This book was released on 2004 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book of Second Peter has long troubled biblical scholars and interpreters, who have disputed both its authorship and its claims about the imminent return of Christ. In this study, Peter Leithart offers a preterist reading of the epistle, arguing that it describe first-century events rather than the end of history. At the same time, he maintains orthodoxy, avoiding hyper-preterism and affirming both the real future return of Christ and the epistle's authenticity. Leithart's accessible style and powerful arguments make this book a valuable addition to the discussion surrounding the Bible's apocalyptic prophecies.

Download or read book Jewish Christians in Puritan England written by Aidan Cottrell-Boyce and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2022-11-24 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the proliferation of Protestant sects across England in the seventeenth century, a remarkable number began adopting demonstratively Jewish ritual practices. From circumcision to Sabbath-keeping and dietary laws, their actions led these movements were labelled by their contemporaries as Judaizers, with various motives proposed. Were these Judaizing steps an excrescence of over-exuberant biblicism? Were they a by-product of Protestant apocalyptic tendencies? Were they a response to the changing status of Jews in Europe? In Jewish Christians in Puritan England, Aidan Cottrell-Boyce shows that it was instead another aspect of Puritanism that led to this behaviour: the need to be recognised as a 'singular', positively distinctive, Godly minority. This quest for demonstrable uniqueness as a form of assurance united the Judaizing groups with other Protestant movements, while the depiction of Judaism in Christian rhetoric at the time made them a peculiarly ideal model upon which to base the marks of their salvation.

Download or read book Identity and Agency in England 1500 1800 written by J. Barry and published by Springer. This book was released on 2004-11-23 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays is arranged around the central issue raised by a raft of new empirical research - the relationship between social identity, or the 'vision of the self', and the ways in which this can explain historical agency. If identities in early modern society were multiple, complex, and dependent on context, rather than homogenous, consistent, or easily determined, then it is difficult to make simple causal links to behaviour. This collection aims to make innovative new research on the structures of English society available to the wider scholarly audience. The essays use a number of detailed contextual case studies to explore the twin themes of the nature of identities in early modern society, and their role in influencing historical agency. They examine the variety of identities available to individuals in early modern England, and the ways in which these were invoked and employed.
